The funniest part is that even if you pull off a run like this, Olimar's notes will still be like "I still have *1* parts to collect. How am I going to collect it in just *25* days?? I must be diligent!"
that's my favorite thing to do when i before i carry back the last part, get as many bomb rocks as I can, clump 'em together and whistle them back. can't do it on wii though, sadly
Funny how this is pretty much exactly how Pikmin was supposed to be played. Many games that get the TAS treatment get broken or made trivial. With Pikmin, you're playing the game exactly as intended, just, really really well.
He does glitch himself up walls and use his body being carries to push heavier objects. It definitely cheeses the physics engine, but in a brilliant way.
this is unlike the usual speedrun, instead of the goal being to beat every level as fast as possible, the goal is to beat every level as efficiently as possible.
@@noah-pg7eg well i guess it would depend, there's different goals people have. for example, quitting a day early may make it faster in actual time, but if you go by the in-game days it would be better to stay and get more pikmin or ship parts
29:06 this guy catches his blues on fire to cancel their flowering animation. The absolute madman. The amount of thought that went into the routing in this video must have been astronomical, well done! All your pikmin seemed to be doing something productive at any given moment.
Funnily enough, according to description: "this is not a frame perfect TAS. I made this with the intention of completing the game with 50 pikmin in 6 days and not to get the fastest conceivable time. In fact, this TAS was done with save states only and there was no frame advancing used." If this is true, that's very impressive
40:54 was a strong contender for me. Honestly though, most of the tricks in this run (the item canceling animation cancels, using olimar at rest to push the parts out of the water with 5 blues, even the beatboxing) have blown me away
This is actually peak Pikmin Like, I can't think of anything more impressive than this This is absolutely insane and perfect THAT BREADBUG CLUTCH THOUGH OH MY GOD
Bulborb footsteps are 100X more imposing sounding in pikmin 1 than the other games... They sound like they ACTUALLY shake the ground from Olimars perspective.
Might be my favorite TAS of all time. The fact that every single day comes right down to the final seconds is amazing. Normally for a TAS I’d expect at least one level to be beatable in like half a day, and one that requires two days. Unintentionally great design on Nintendo’s part.
I think this is the first speedrun that I've ever fully watched. So fascinating to see how much you can do in this game with the bare minimum, its absolutely insane and amazing at the same time!
This is amazing! I've never watched speedruns or challenge runs in this game before, so every glitch / skip is new to me, but this was very entertaining and interesting. Thank you for putting in the effort to make this :)
Funny, when I was struggling to find a way to push the ionium jet out of the water I was thinking to myself how I really should just ask Hazel even though she's probably never even played the game before.
I was amazed at pushing out all submerged parts in the Forest Navel. I congratulate you on your achievement that you pulled up the #1 Ionium jet from water the same as the Anti-Dioxin Filter.
Watching you do the whole Forest Naval in one go was really satisfying, but then you hit me with Distant Spring out of bounds and now I’m really IMPRESSED!
Beautiful run. I watched an older run last year and searched up Pikmin TAS earlier to show a friend, and found that this newer run existed! Some of these tricks absolutely blew my mind. When you left the blue onion with only 5 Pikmin, I was extremely curious to see how you'd get the fully submerged parts, and boy did you deliver. Bravo!
The craziest part of this to me is somehow all the monster interactions are planned for and knowing exactly what they will do when if thats how this was done
Watching me fills me with joy that I haven’t experienced in such a long time. Pikmin will always be one of my favorite childhood games. Hell, it WAS my childhood
This is no ordinary man thrust into a survival-type situation. This is a Captain Olimar who spent years planning for this kind of scenario, knows exactly what he's doing, and comes in clutch. (And also played some Undertale along the way, as this is almost a true pacifist run...very few enemies are actually killed here outside of those holding parts.) 5:45: You know it's a TAS when the runner is jamming to the music in some way. D:
5:41 he could never beatbox **spitting cereal wojak meme** also this doesnt even look like a tas for the most part, just some dude with VERY good dandori
1:01:14 Now that I think about it, we've seen almost all of these Pikmin. Purple onion - Purple Pikmin Pink onion - Winged Pikmin Black onion - Rock Pikmin Blue onion - Blue Pikmin (obviously) Green onion - Bulbmin (while the parasitic Pikmin that live inside them have never been seen, their leaves glow green when dismissed, leading most people to assume they're green. They only ones we haven't seen are orange and cyan Pikmin.
@@Mathi5000 I have no idea what an orange pikmin would do. And while cyan could be something cool like ice, I just can't imagine them implementing it because of how close their color is to blue. Although they could probably get around this by changing the shape or texture. After all, a black pikmin would look too close to a purple pikmin. And a purple pikmin would look too much like a pink pikmin. But they seemed to get around that just fine.
My own theory for orange pikmin is that they would be the construction expert pikmin, Like carpenter ants, they can to building jobs at 10x the speed of other pikmin Would be useful if enemies were capable of destroying the environment and some hazards required shelters to avoid
Olimar is such a nice guy. He thinks about his family even while stranded on a planet and gets at least one souvenir for his son. Shame he has to return immediately after he escapes because of Louie.
6 days, we see here that it's possible. 12 days is more likely, if you know what you're doing, since precision will not be that easy and you'll probably lose some pikmin along the way. 20 days makes sense if you don't know anything since you'll get lost, and might as well add on the extra 2 days from 18 bc they'll probably spend some time losing and regaining Pikmin 25 days if they're going for 100% and have been getting optional parts along the way Which still leaves 5 days for all the mess-ups
Im confused as to how enemies are not killing your pikmin as you have them carry items. Like how did the armored beetle not completely flatten them, or the shearwigs eat them.

My favorite part of this TAS is when like 9 bomb rocks are thrown at the same time and it breaks the sound system for the game for a second
Time stamp?
23:56
Shockingly, Pikmin uses midis and soundbanks.
that's my favorite thing to do when i before i carry back the last part, get as many bomb rocks as I can, clump 'em together and whistle them back. can't do it on wii though, sadly
Uhh source?

Many games that get the TAS treatment get broken or made trivial. With Pikmin, you're playing the game exactly as intended, just, really really well.
as much fun as absolutely breaking games can be, i love when a TAS is just supper tight regular gameplay.
He does glitch himself up walls and use his body being carries to push heavier objects. It definitely cheeses the physics engine, but in a brilliant way.
The button inputs are literally impossible for humans to replicate. They're way too fast lmao
not to mention swarming Pikmin to objects with perfect numbers on the first try, etc.

@@enderpaw. 35:28 starts it off. The main event is at 35:48.
It is impressive, but it’s not like it takes that much skill, it’s just tedious. Its tas, they can just keep trying frame by frame until it’s perfect.
TAS skill is in planning, not execution.
Planning can take years, and one mistake can invalidate a whole run.
TASdori
The best part of this entire game is Olimar's little shuffle walk
ikr
Truth
Hard agree
Glad they brought it back for 4
Bulborb footsteps are 100X more imposing sounding in pikmin 1 than the other games... They sound like they ACTUALLY shake the ground from Olimars perspective.
Glad I found the source of the "Olimar beatbox" short I saw. I love when TAS does stuff like that during required waiting, like auto scrollers.

The trick at 29:20 is absolutely genius! This was such an entertaining video, thanks for the upload.

On the wii version, when you whistle the yellows who have bombs, they don't drop them anymore they just respond to you like normal.
The Wii and Switch version inverted the behaviours I believe. On GCN, whistle drops them, not touching.
